OEM limited 22's, airlink suspension links front and rear. Can I fit 305/45 without any rubbing. I see on the customoffsets site that someone has those size tires on 22x9.5 with stock suspension. Is anyone running that size on 22x9????
 
stock wheel and tire is 275/55r22x9. you will definitely rub. your going from 10.8 to 12 width.
 
How much did you lower it with the links?
I have the Michelin Defender LTX's in 305/45r22's on my 19 LTD and I will get minimal rub against the plastic liner at full clock. It rubs the liner a bit more at entry/exit level but still nothing concerning. The Michelin's don't have an aggressive sidewall so depending on your tire selection, you may get more rub than I experience.

I raised with the links. did the front/rear raise using them. I want to say it went up 1 inch front/back...
 
So you likely won’t have any rub at all then. And if you do, it’s just the plastic liner which can be molded or Ty-wrapped out of the way.

id say your still going to rub at lock so youll need to use a heat gun to mold your plastics or trim/cut it. i wouldnt risk it man. just do it the right way.

decided to just go with stock size, but a better tire. Toyo AT 3.. I have had Toyo's before, they are smooth and quiet

Share pics of your truck with the new tires!
